Nannykim shared some things that make her heart smile and challenged others to do the same. Here’s my list:
the sound of my children’s laughter
butterflies
hugs and kisses
freshly baked bread
flowers
pumpkin scented candles
twinkle lights
romantic movies
love notes
fall leaves
hand written letters
encouraging words
clean sheets
bubble baths
little girls playing dress-up
hot buttered popcorn
phone calls from far away friends and family
our cat and dog curled up together
a shiny sink
beautiful music
special Bible verses
old photo albums
surprises
holding hands with my husband
peaceful little angels sleeping in their beds
What things make your heart smile? Let me know if you post a list; I’d love to read it. 🙂
What a great list. It reminds me of “Raindrops on Roses and whiskers on kittens”.
Have your read the Mitford series? Cynthia is famous for telling her husband what she loves. And she loves a lot of wonderful, creative things. What a great way to see the world don’t you think?
Great list–I love all of those things tooo–isn’t this fun? And the more you think , during the day, the more you see, feel and are thankful for. And BECKY asked about the Mitford series and I am currently reading that–I do think it is a great way to see the world–it makes us rejoice always and have very thankful hearts!!
Becky & Nannykim,
I have read the Mitford books, and I love how Jan Karon shows that the simple things are the most important.
Blessings,
Mrs. C

I wrote a list like this a while back about the reasons I love fall. I love all your list as well.
It seems like you and I smile at the very same things:o)
